THE MOON IS IN TAURUS TODAY! Keywords: money, practical, stability, music, possessions, self-worth, morals, values, romance, slow to decide

The Moon in Taurus is opposing your 7th house of contractual relationships. This house also rules unions, lawsuits, contracts, partnerships, marriages, agreements, and open enemies with the public. This can be partnerships in business, marriage or a committed relationship that is a live-in arrangement. It also includes long-term associations, the animus (underlying passion or force), the relationship between soul and personality.

Today begins with the Taurus Moon Void of Course at 6:26 AM EDT and finally settling in Gemini at 6:04 PM EDT. That's a full 12 hours of unscheduled, detoured and delayed circumstances as this lunar energy makes its way from slow and meandering Taurus energy into here-there-any-everywhere Gemini energy. This is quite a shift that may be very welcomed at this point. At exactly 12:14 PM EDT the Moon will actually enter Gemini but it will not settle down and get comfey until it reaches 03 degrees Gemini at 6:04 PM EDT. As I describe in the 3rd paragraph on the Main Void of Course Moon page, this is very similar to what the energy is like when you move from one residence (house) to another. The Moon is not only shifting signs, but it is shifting houses and this occurs every 2 to 2-1/2 days without fail. You should be in those final thoughts of self-worth that I wrote about yesterday and figuring out of how you can shift that energy. Maybe you have been meandering around thinking about a lot of things through over the past two days and now with the Moon in Gemini, you are ready to take off and make things happen for yourself.

Interestingly enough, Mercury the natural ruling planet of Gemini turns Retrograde today until November 10, 2013. Mercury, which rules communication in all forms including our mental abilities, paperwork, machines and the gadgets that we use to communicate. Mercury Retrograde is always a great time to take care of old business, especially while we are still in the two week period following the Full Moon in Aries that just occurred on Friday, October 18, 2013. Think in terms of 'wrapping up old projects with a nice little bow' during this time. Retrograde planets always serve as wonderful do-overs for us as well, so that we can re-do or complete that which we had already started. In other words, all of those half done or nearly done projects need to be wrapped up now. These Retrograde do-overs give us a chance to get things right before we progress forward. So if you can think about what area of your Life you would like to move forward in, then this is a great time to clean up and clear out that area of your Life. Better yet, for all Scorpio's on the planet, this will impact your 1st house of the self, personality, ego, appearance and approach to Life and it will especially impact your personal Natal Chart in the area that is ruled by Scorpio because Mercury happens to be in the sign of Scorpio. If you are on Facebook, then you may have seen that Facebook had a huge issue right out of the Mercury Retrograde gate this morning because a bazillion people including yours truly could not log in. It was all over the Twitter feed as well.

During Mercury Retrograde you may be dealing with your appearance, personality, ego or something that has to do with 'the self', even self-confidence may be an issue for you right now. Either way, there is a backward motion going on here where you have to retrace your steps and fix something that needs your attention. This may feel like a setback but it is actually calling for you to improve upon this area of your Life before you progress forward. Mercury Retrograde doesn't really last all that long but the effects can certainly feel like it especially if you attempt to be difficult. Make certain when you retrace your steps that you are not retracing into territory that was unbecoming of you. This could be old behaviorial patterns or connections with people that are long since over. Make certain you keep this Mercury Retrograde influence about you personally rather than bring someone else into the picture. It is time to improve upon you, not improve upon you and someone else. Delays right now are not such a bad thing, it may only seem that way.
